Background Information
CD55, also known as DAF, is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored surface glycoprotein that is widely distributed on blood, stroma, epithelial, and endothelial cells (PMID: 7517044; 29503741). It can also exist as a soluble form in plasma, urine, saliva, tears, and synovial fluids (PMID: 29503741). CD55 is a complement regulatory protein (PMID: 2469439; 7517044). It inhibits formation of the C3 convertases through binding to C3b and C4b. It also binds the alternate pathway convertase C3bBb, the classical pathway convertase and C4b2a to accelerate their decay (PMID: 17289551). CD55 also serves as a receptor for coxsackieviruses B1, B3, and B5 and several enteroviruses (PMID: 7538177; 7517044). The observed molecular weight of mature CD55 varies between 50 to 100 kDa depending on the cell type. Different sizes of CD55 might be caused by alternative splicing or different glycosylation patterns (PMID: 29503741).

Reviews
What customers say
One reviewer gave this CD55 recombinant rabbit antibody a 5-star rating for immunofluorescence on FFPE human tonsil tissue. Staining was well localized in germinal centers as expected. The protocol used 1:100 dilution with overnight incubation at 4°C after Dako antigen retrieval (pH 9), followed by goat anti-rabbit secondary at 1:1000 for 1 hour at room temperature. Overall, the user reported the antibody worked perfectly out of the box.

Maxence (Verified Customer) (01-26-2026) | This CD55 works perfectly in IF-P. The staining is well localized in the germinal centers of the tonsil, as expected. The IF was performed on FFPE human tonsil tissue slide with Dako antigen retrival pH9. Primary incubation was performed at 1:100 overnight (16h) at 4°C. Secondary incubation was performed with Goat anti-Rabbit at 1:1000 for 1h at RT. Image were taken with a Leica THUNDER at 10x and 20x magnification.
